It only took four months, but it’s finally happening.
On Sept. 16, 2020, it became all but evident that Joe Milton had won Michigan football’s starting quarterback job at the outset of the pending year, because former backup quarterback and potential starter Dylan McCaffrey was set to transfer. Only, that declaration happened, without any action behind it.
McCaffrey essentially opted out of the 2020 season, as he remained in classes and continued to attend the University of Michigan. There were some who asked whether or not that meant McCaffrey could find himself back in the fold. After all — one is not a transfer until they have transferred, name in portal or not. And McCaffrey never entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal.
That changed on Thursday, with McCaffrey finally entering the NCAA transfer portal.

McCaffrey was still listed on Michigan football’s published roster in 2020. However, the Wolverines will move forward without him, with Joe Milton, Cade McNamara, Dan Villari and J.J. McCarthy as the scholarship quarterbacks on the team.
